Highlights of

Budgeting, Estimating and Cost Control Experience

Chevron - Responsible for numerous small civil and larger offshore petroleum production operations and pipeline projects proposals, including cost estimates, payout calculations and scheduling. Responsible for cost control and contract administration for approved projects.

Brown & Root - As Manager for a major international engineering and projects management division, I was responsible for all divisional overhead budgeting, all projects planning and cost estimating, all contracts negotiation and management and all cost control for a large number of major to small engineered construction projects.

Special Divisional assignments included: Responsibility for the development of three-dimensional offshore structures analysis programs using main frame computers. Responsible for the development of critical path scheduling/planning systems for projects bidding and cost control for adaptation for the entire company.

Fluor Ocean Services- As corporate chief operating officer, responsible for all corporate overhead budgeting and cost control for a large company with several operating divisions.

Santa Fe International

- Member of the Operating Committee which made all decisions to fund capital projects. Six engineering divisions (Project Management Contracts, Deep Drilling Rig Development, Civil and Marine, Offshore Construction, all Floating -semisubmersible- Construction and Drilling Rig Development projects and Naval Architecture) reported to me, and I had the full responsibility for estimating and cost control, along with overhead budgeting for all divisions. Heavy Construction Estimating for civil, offshore, and marine projects also reported to me. Headed Construction/Engineering Marketing at the corporate level.

JGMA group companies- This fifth largest US project management company had four international subsidiaries. A significant part of our responsibilities to various clients were for overhead and corporate budgeting, estimating the cost of projects and cost control. During the period from 1983, until my official retirement in 1992, the firms served as engineers to large banking syndicates and international petroleum companies on 24 major (over one-half billion dollars), and many smaller, offshore petroleum development projects. Our principal responsibilities to those clients were for planning, budgeting, cost control, scheduling, advise in financial structuring and contracts evaluation and administration, on many billions of dollars worth of work. During the work for all of these projects our projections of costs were never more than 5 percent from actual, except in one case when project costs exceeded our projections by about 8 per cent because of fraudulent transactions between a petroleum company partner involved and one of their principal contractors. In no case were the estimates of the borrowers or the banks closer to actual than ours.

Since returning to the US in late 1992 to retire, my professional work has been of similar nature, but largely for smaller projects, except one large Pemex project offshore Mexico and Petrobras' Barracuda and Caratinga - Banks Engineer for financing syndicate headed by Deutsche Bank 2000 -2002/3.
